The battlefield had gone silent.
Dragon fire still burned across the ruined streets of Blackridge, but no one moved.
Not the dragons.
Not the demons.
Not even the Abyss Titan.
Everyone was staring at the dimensional gate.
Kai Draven slowly wiped the dust from his face and looked upward.
"…You're telling me that giant thing was just a guard?"
Lyra nodded slowly.
Her voice was barely a whisper.
"Yes."
Kai sighed deeply.
"Of course it was."
The dimensional gate trembled again.
Dark energy poured out of it like an endless ocean.
But this time, the energy was different.
It felt heavier.
Older.
More terrifying.
Even the Abyss Titan stepped aside.
Kai noticed that instantly.
"Okay… that thing is definitely making space for someone."
Drakar growled beside him.
The bonded dragon lowered its body protectively.
Even the Dragon Emperor folded its wings slightly.
Kai looked around.
"All of you are nervous."
"That's a bad sign."
The system suddenly began flashing rapidly.
[Extreme Dimensional Distortion Detected]
Kai blinked.
"Oh boy."
Another message appeared.
[Unknown Entity Approaching]
The portal cracked wider.
CRRRRRRACK.
A massive silhouette slowly appeared inside the gate.
At first, it looked like darkness itself.
Then two enormous horns became visible.
Then glowing purple eyes.
The creature stepped forward.
BOOOOOOOOM.
Reality itself seemed to bend.
The ground trembled across the entire city.
Kai slowly looked up.
"…Yeah, that one feels worse."
Lyra's face had gone completely pale.
"Kai…"
Kai glanced at her.
"What now?"
Lyra swallowed hard.
"That… is the Abyss Overlord."
Kai rubbed his temples.
"So we've upgraded from demon lord… to abyss titan… to overlord."
He pointed at the portal.
"Is there an abyss emperor too or are we done?"
The massive creature stepped fully into the world.
It was enormous.
Taller than the Abyss Titan.
Its body looked like living shadow.
Six enormous wings spread behind it.
Chains of dark energy wrapped around its arms like serpents.
The system exploded with alerts.
[World-Class Threat Detected]
Kai raised an eyebrow.
"That sounds encouraging."
The Abyss Overlord looked around slowly.
Its purple eyes scanned the battlefield.
Dragons.
Demons.
The titan.
Finally—
They stopped on Kai.
Kai sighed.
"Of course."
The creature's voice echoed across the sky.
"You carry the Sovereign Bloodline."
Kai crossed his arms.
"You're the fourth monster to tell me that today."
The Overlord tilted its head slightly.
"You are not fully awakened."
Kai shrugged.
"Working on it."
Behind him, the shadow of the First Dragon moved again.
Golden light flickered across Kai's aura.
The Overlord noticed instantly.
For the first time—
The creature's expression changed.
"Interesting."
Kai smirked.
"Yeah, I get that a lot."
The Abyss Titan stepped beside the Overlord like a loyal guard.
The Overlord raised one hand slowly.
Dark energy gathered above its palm.
But it wasn't like the titan's attack.
This energy felt far more dangerous.
The sky itself started collapsing inward.
Lyra grabbed Kai's arm again.
"Kai… that attack could destroy half the continent."
Kai blinked.
"Half?"
Lyra nodded nervously.
"Yes."
Kai looked back at the Overlord.
"Well."
"That's a little excessive."
Drakar roared loudly beside him.
The Dragon Emperor spread its wings again.
The Sovereign Dragon descended from the sky.
Kai looked behind him.
An entire dragon army was gathering.
Dozens of dragons circled the battlefield.
Their flames illuminated the dark sky.
Kai smiled slowly.
"Well…"
"At least I'm not alone."
The Overlord raised its hand higher.
A massive sphere of abyss energy formed above the city.
The system flashed again.
[Warning: Catastrophic Attack Incoming]
Kai cracked his neck slowly.
Golden dragon fire ignited around his fists again.
The First Dragon's shadow behind him roared once more.
RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
The sky split apart from the sound.
Kai stepped forward.
"Alright."
"You want a war?"
The Dragon Emperor roared.
Drakar roared.
The entire dragon army roared.
Kai raised his hand toward the sky.
Golden flames exploded around him.
"Then let's start one."
But suddenly—
The dimensional gate behind the Overlord trembled again.
Even the Overlord froze.
Lyra noticed first.
"Kai…"
Kai frowned.
"What now?"
Lyra pointed toward the portal.
"Kai… something is pushing the gate open from the other side."
Kai stared.
"…You're kidding."
Because something massive was forcing its way through the portal.
Something even the Abyss Overlord seemed wary of.
The system exploded with a final alert.
[Ancient Entity Awakening]
Kai stared at the screen.
"…Oh come on."
What ancient being is approaching from beyond the Abyss?
Why did even the Abyss Overlord hesitate?
And will Kai finally unlock the true power of the Dragon Sovereign?
What will happen next?
